Tayla is a female first name.
Tayla is a well-known name in the US, but is still special. It is currently only given to every ten thousandth girl, and therefore ranks at 1,809 in the SmartGenius statistics. This means there are 1,808 girls names that are more common, but also tens of thousands that are much rarer. If you polled the whole US population – children, adults and seniors – you’d find less than one in 10,000 to be named Tayla.
Tayla is a fairly recent phenomenon. In the past, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Then, unexpectedly, Tayla cried out for attention, reaching its peak in popularity at #884 in our SmartGenius statistics in the year 2006. People over 50 probably didn't have classmates named Tayla, for there were many years in which not a single parent chose this first name for their daughter. Although it also has never been in the top 100 of most popular first names, Tayla seems to have been in vogue for a while, especially since the beginning of the new millennium.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Tayla was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
79 babies were named Tayla in 2022 - that's 1 in 1,876,353 newborn girls. With this number, the girls' name Tayla ranked 2,083 in our SmartGenius first name statistics in 2022, the most recent year for which records are available.
Well, you might say, you probably figured that out yourself! But what you might not know is: The letter T is a quite popular first letter for girls' names. Because: 6.3% of all common girls’ names in the US begin with this letter. By the way, the most common first letters for girls’ names are A, S and M.
With five letters, the name Tayla is comparatively short. In fact, 17.0% of all common first names in the US consist of exactly five letters. Only 7% of all first names are even shorter, while 75% have more than five letters. On average, first names in the US (not counting hyphenated names) are 6.5 letters long. There are no significant differences between boys' and girls' names.
With 6.3% of all girls' names that begin with a T, this first letter is thus much more common than all 26 letters on average - and the most popular one of all the girls’ names starting with T is Teresa.
If your name is Tayla and someone asks after your name, you can of course just tell them what it is. But sometimes that isn't so easy - what if it's too loud, and you don't understand them well? Or what if the other person is so far away that you can see them but not hear them? In these situations, you can communicate your name in so many other ways: you call spell it, sign it, or even use a flag to wave it...
